Re: [V8i VBA] Problem about Display Style

Sorry, I don't want a key-in. In batch-process (VBA RUN) if it is running too fast (I guess), it sometimes would be treated as a n unknown command and therefore unworkable. As John Frampton said rendering mode is different from display style. I eventually understood why the result is different from key-in.

Likely there're no solution. (I searched, no style relative to "display" in VBA). Ask for one more thing, is it possible to set Microstation V8i turning on "LEGACYDRAWORDER" automatically when opening a V7 dgn file? And then I don't need to upgrade them into V8 format and also the display style.

Hi,

I've changed two variable names & added comments to your routine to help. The bottom line is that you have to pass the window origin and the window size to the mdl command.

Hi All,

I have been able to develop a sample macro as suggested by sivag75 and its working well with the line element. now my question is, the method "ProjectPointOnPerpendicular2" is works only with line elemnt if yes then how to project the intersection point to the shape. please clrify, it would be a great help for me.

Best regards

Check the vba help file for "ProjectPointOnPerpendicular2" method. It applies to few more element types including Shape Element also.

PMFJI, it is getting difficult to follow this thread, so maybe it is worth backing up a bit and start with this... Have you installed the minimum requirements (e.g. Visual Studio 2005, MicroStation, MicroStation SDK)? If so, use the MicroStation Developer Shell to compile one of the examples:

Windows Start > Bentley > MicroStation V8i ... SDK > MicroStation Developer Shell
cd to the folder where the basic example make file is
bmake -a -dDLM_NO_SIGN

Just try that (exactly how it is identified) and see if that gets you a compiled application. If it does not, what OS are you running on? If it is a current one (like Windows 7), have you lowered UAC for the account you are using when compiling the application?

Some old dialogboxes are different with .NET Form. I can use the following to get all opened .NET Forms, such as Tasks, Element Information, Element Selection, etc.

foreach (Form form in Application.OpenForms) { MessageBox.Show(form.Text); }

Hi,

Store the selected elements in a Collection.

For Each m_oElement1 in Col

For Each m_oEement2 in Col

' here check the intersection between element1 and element2 and create the vertices.

Next m_oElement2

Next m_oElement1

But, this would be a time consuming process if the dgn is a dense file. Because each element will be checked against all elements.

So, you can simplify it in another way.

By putting a fence to the element1, find out the overlapping or crossing elements to it. Now check intersection points for those overlapping elements only. It will save you time.

HTH,

Sivag

Hi,

Thanks Robert, now its more clear what´s happen in this macro :)

Now I will try to add all other needed settings like view attributes and design file settings to my macro.

For the view attribute I did find a good solution by doing that through key in commands.

But for the design file settings.....?? I tried to set up the working units (format, master & sub units, accuracy, resolution and solids) by a macro, but it didn´t work since no changes are recorded to the macro.

It looks like there are many small adjustments that can not be recorded by a macro.....!?

Perhaps I need to open a new theme for this problem?

It is the strength "USER ACCESS CONTROL" from Windows from Version 7 on.

I selected "Never notify" (This is the least secure setting. When you set UAC to never notify, you open up your computer to potential security risks) and restarted PC, but ...nothing changed for my compilation :-(((

However, something went wrong. There's a BMAKE call trace that tells us the dlmlink.mki failed at line 442. However, I am puzzled by that message because it looks like that line is empty — it's the last or penultimate line of that file, which are both blank.

Try adding the following to your basic.mke file...

DLM_NO_SIGN = 1 # this is an example and should not be signed.

The new line should be copied just before this line...

DLM_NO_DLS = 1 # USE DLLEXPORT IN .CPP
